STORM IN A TEACUP
(Roker / Rubin aka Lynsey DePaul)

The Fortunes - 1972
Lynsey DePaul - 1972


Pitter-Patter, Pitter-Patter, 
Pitter-Patter, Pitter-Patter

One drop of rain on your windowpane
Doesn't mean to say there's a thunderstorm comin'
Rain may pour for an hour or more
But it doesn't matter
You know it doesn't matter

One gentle breeze falling softly through the trees
Doesn't mean to say there's a hurricane hummin'
Don't start runnin' every time you hear it comin'
'Cos it doesn't matter
You know it doesn't matter

One little word that you may have overheard
Doesn't mean to say that my love for you is dyin'
Don't start cryin' over second-hand lyin'
Say it doesn't matter
You know it doesn't matter

It's a stooooooooooooorm in a teacup
Brewin' up trouble over tiny little tussles
It's a stooooooooooooorm in a teacup
It really doesn't matter
If you hear the pitter-patter someday

(Instrumental Break)

One little word that you may have overheard
Doesn't mean to say that my love for you is dyin'
Don't start cryin' over second-hand lyin'
Say it doesn't matter
You know it doesn't matter

It's a stooooooooooooorm in a teacup
Brewin' up trouble over tiny little tussles
It's a stooooooooooooorm in a teacup
It really doesn't matter
If you hear the pitter-patter someday

(Instrumental Break)

One drop of rain on your windowpane
Doesn't mean to say there's a thunderstorm comin'
Rain may pour for an hour or more
But it doesn't matter
You know it doesn't matter

One gentle.........FADE
